AS3 doesn't easily create variables in the format that the API needs (e.g. time[value] as a POST var) - you need a little hack in order to do this, just so you know ;-)

Can you please tell me which platform do you use? PHP, .NET, Java? Something else?

Is there an API quickstart guide - it took me a long time to figure out all the little quirks, and it might be useful for others...

I'm trying to develop an arduino-based hardware 'button' for recording time against tickets.

I've built an AS3 AIR client for AC which successfully gets all the projects and tickets I need, but I've been struggling for days now to post a new time record.

I'm sending the submitted=submitted, token and path_info vars as GET on the end of the query string, and the time[xxx] as POST. If I do anything else I get a validation error, and this seems the right format from browsing these forums. The API is read-write enabled.

Here's a raw request header as an example:

POST /api.php?token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&path_info=/projects/53/time/add&submitted=submitted HTTP/1.1
Host: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

time%5Buser%5Fid%5D=9&time%5Bvalue%5D=5%3A30&time%5Brecord%5Fdate%5D=2009%2D11%2D13

I'm sending:

time[user_id]=9
time[value]=5:30
time[record_date]=2009-11-13

Can anyone see anything wrong with this? Any help gratefully received!!
